<!-- NEW! -->IEC 62442-1:2022 is available as <a href="https://webstore.iec.ch/publication/74127">IEC 62442-1:2022 RLV</a> which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition.</br></br>IEC 62442-1:2022 defines a measurement and calculation method of the total input power for controlgear-lamp circuits when operating with their associated fluorescent lamp(s). The calculation method for the efficiency of the lamp controlgear is also defined. This document applies to electrical controlgear-lamp circuits consisting only of the controlgear and the lamp(s). It is intended for use on DC supplies up to 1 000 V and/or AC supplies up to 1 000 V at 50 Hz or 60 Hz. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2018. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:

- this edition has been harmonized with IEC 62442-2 and IEC 62442­-3;

- the reference to and use of the measurement methods for non-active power consumption in accordance with IEC 63103 have been added.
